Answer:
The excerpt that is an example of zeugma is:
C. [H]e went down under an exceptional burden, more than 20 pounds of ammunition, plus the flak jacket and helmet and rations and water and toilet paper and tranquilizers and all the rest, plus the unweighed fear.
Explanation:
Zeugma can be defined as a literary device that uses one word to refer to different things in different ways. For instance, let's take the verb "run". When we say "run out the door," we are using the verb in a literal way. However, when we say "run out of time," the verb is being used in a different way, since this time it does not indicate the action of rapidly moving from a place to another by using your legs. Thus, if we use "run" in both ways at the same time, we have an example of zeugma: He ran out of time and out the door.
Having that in mind, we can easily see that we have a zeugma in option C, where the word "burden" is used to refer to the literal burden of carrying heavy things and the figurative burden of fear.

I need essey 150 Words
Thema is "A place I'd Like to visit"
please! thank you!
Answer:
A place I would like to visit. There are a lot of wonderful places I wish to visit. However, most of all I would like to visit Hollywood and I have many reasons to do. So if my rich uncle offered me a trip, it would be great. Because I really want to see how the films are made, meet famous actors and actresses and just have a good time.
Firstly, Hollywood is famous place for making films there. For example, I like films and spend a great amount of my free time watching new and old films, especially made in Hollywood. And when the film attracts me I wish to know how the director made such wonderful and awesome films, what kind of technologies he used, and how the actors made dangerous things. It seems to me that the Hollywood is the best place to satisfy my interests in films.
Also, almost all famous American actors and actresses lives in Hollywood. Therefore if I visit this place I will probably have an opportunity to meet them take, autographs and even have a talk with them and asking them about their feelings during the film and after watching themselves in already-made films. Visiting Los-Angeles will have a lot of opportunities of meeting famous people. Moreover, Los-Angeles is one of the beautiful places in the world. It has a lot of beaches and as it is always hot there, you can spend your time swimming. There are also a lot of parties organized every day, where you can have a drink and enjoy your time in the city. Therefore besides watching films I will have a great opportunity to get away from my everyday life and enjoy my time by dancing and swimming.

How do Buck from The Call of the Wild and Miki from Nomads of the North
react differently when they first hear the sound of the wolves?
Answer:
Initially, Buck's response to the dognappers is one of quiet acceptance. But that's because he doesn't yet know he's being stolen. He instinctively trusts Manuel, and so has no reason to think that he's up to no good. So when Manuel places the rope around his neck, he accepts it with quiet dignity.

Read the poem entitled "The Poison Tree" by William Blake.
I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I watered it in fears
Night and morning with my tears,
And I sunned it with smiles
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright,
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine, —
And into my garden stole
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning, glad, I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

The houyhnhnms cause Gulliver to .
The Houyhnhnms cause Gulliver to hate himself.
Explanation:
He compares himself to the human-like but beastly Yahoos, who are held in subjection by the Houyhnhnms, and learns to hate men for not being horses. Here, Swift's satire is double-edged; the cold Houyhnhnms are imperfect, just as the Yahoos are. Gulliver is disabled by his self-hate; he becomes too critical and isolated to love even his own family.
